About the host
Your host
Hello and welcome to my home. I am the proud father to two wonderful kids and we love to spend time outside in the pool, on the trampoline, or hiking in Cameron Park. Born and raised in the UK, I relocated to Waco in 2016 after living in the Mosel wine region of Germany. I have traveled quite a bit and feel I have found my place in the Castle Heights area.
I love my neighborhood. Not only is it beautiful but I also feel very safe here. In my opinion, the best parts about this place are the beautiful homes that line the streets, the large mature trees, and the sidewalks... a big bonus in Waco. This area is so close to so many things but yet far enough away to not get the crazy noise and traffic
My favorite things to do here are to walk to the local coffee shop/bar (Pinewood - about 2 blocks away) or ride my bike to Cameron Park (about 4 miles away). The Silos are also about 2 miles away along with many great restaurants and bars. For the Baylor fans and alumni, campus and stadium are approximately 3 miles away.
Please feel free to message me first before booking if you have any questions.
I really love my neighborhood, and, if you book my studio, I hope you will too!
